I cried I laughed I cried some more. Not sure how to express the rollercoaster of emotions this duo of books put me though there are no words. I will be buying these books as a trophy.

The ending felt rushed and messy. The last-minute kidnapping didn’t add much, and killing off the one character who actually made the love dynamic work? Questionable choice.

I loved this book! Just like the first one, I couldn't put it down. Loved Galantia, Malyr and Sebian. I absolutely loved this duet, even though the end of books 2 had me crying my eyes out.
